Destiny’s next mission, she added, is to master the application of her own lashes.

That risk is compounded for pregnant women of color. The maternal death rate for black mothers is already double the rate of white mothers, and nationally Black and Latina women are disproportionately affected by COVID-19 during pregnancy. So grave are the concerns around COVID-19 and maternal mortality that legislation to address the issue was introduce...
